cracked me up!!

i dunno…some days, just about anything can be funny to me.  i believe i was at home, taking it easy on a saturday afternoon…maybe i was half asleep when i saw this, but i ended up in tears from laughing so hard.  my favorite parts are:

1) the older lady in the frackin’ cat suit showing off her ‘best model poses.’

2) the impersonation of the frackin ‘peeker’ behind Oprah.

her tears

my mom is faced with the fact that her grandmother may be dying…below was written for her.

so she cries, and it hurts like i caused it myself
she can’t talk for the effort to breathe
i try to find words that i feel i’m equipped with
but nothing comes out as i freeze

she wants to be strong but i know that she’ll stay
where she is, in her deepest of blue
she is hurting so bad all she knows is her sad
there is nothing anybody can do

by the time it has landed-that very first tear
i know what the ending will be
by the end of the night i will put her to bed
where she’ll sob well into her sleep

when she wakes from no rest with the sun the next day
she is tired, emotional-but drained
it’s all over her face, weighing down each breath
all the heartache in the world, all the pain

so she cries, and it hurts like i caused it myself
as she prays that her prayers aren’t in vain

About the Thing
sooo...here i am...sharing a mouthful of me with you. please chew thoroughly, digest slowly, and if you like what you sample, savor it, then feel free to share a bite with others. feedback is always welcome-even if you need to let things marinate for a bit first. my arsenal of flavors will include the basics: sweet and salty; but i can also do fruity, and on occasion, nuts (is this a flavor?)...i try to avoid bitter, but at any given time i can throw a little spicy your way--be ready. i would say 'come hungry', but sometimes i'd rather you bring a snack...i hafta eat too. at any rate, something will be shared between us...and i promise to consider the taste you leave me with-if you feel like sharing ...here we go (and please don't worry-i promise to never watch the food network before blogging ev-errr again.)
